README 
This folder contains the code to produce the main figures and tables in the paper.

The paper uses Stata to construct datasets and run regressions. The data are from MSCI (formerly Burgiss) and 
supplemented with data from Preqin. Since the data are proprietary, this replication package does not provide 
the underlying data. Accordingly, the observations in the pseudo-data may differ from those in the actual data. 
The code replicates the datasets in order to produce the figures and tables.


DEPENDENCIES
The following Stata packages are necessary to run replication_code.do:

	- reghdfe


EXECUTION
To run the entire analysis, the user must change the working directory to the replication folder
and then run the following command in Stata

	. do replication_code.do

Note that the figures are saved to PDF files and the regression estimates are provided in the terminal.
